This makes it easier to organize your site and help users find the content they want to view. You can assign the relevant category the default for publishing new posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The default setting is \u201cStandard\u201d.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other options are: Aside, Image, Video, Link, Quote, Gallery, and Status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also set the Post Format controlling how posts are displayed on your site\u2019s front end. Most themes on WordPress no longer support using multiple Post Formats but if your theme does support their use, you can set the default format \u201cStandard\u201d to apply it to a specific post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note: The formats may differ depending on the theme you have installed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"post-via-email\">Post via Email<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p>This allows you to publish blog posts via email. You can configure a specific email address so that when it receives a message, it automatically publishes its contents as a post on your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note: If you want to configure this setting, you will need a POP3-enabled email address that you use solely for this purpose. Remember: advanced post formatting will not appear on the post, as the content published via email will appear as plain text. Also, you may need to install plugins to enable this functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"markdown\">Markdown<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Markdown\" alt=\"Link to Wikipedia - Markdown\" title=\"Wikipedia - Markdown\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Markdown<\/a> is a form of writing that uses plain text to add page formatting elements such as headings, bulleted lists, and links without using a text editor or HTML tags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By turning on the \u201cWrite posts or pages in plain text Markdown syntax\u201d option, you can write content in Markdown. Also, you may need a plugin for this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"date-time-format\">Date &amp; Time Format<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p>Choose how the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hosted.com\/knowledgebase\/wordpress\/change-date-and-time\/\" alt=\"Link to Hosted.com KBs - How To Change Date And Time For A WordPress Website\" title=\"Hosted.com - How To Change Date And Time For A WordPress Website\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Date and Time<\/a> will be displayed on your site\u2019s posts.

The default setting is 10 but remember: increasing the number may lead to slower page loading speeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Testimonials<\/strong> \u2013 Select the number of Testimonials you want to display per page. If your template does not include Testimonials, use the shortcode [testimonials].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Portfolio Projects<\/strong> \u2013 Select the number of Portfolio Projects to display per page. If your template <a>doesn\u2019t<\/a> have Portfolio Projects, you can use the shortcode [portfolio].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"feed-settings\">Feed Settings<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p>Select the number of posts to include in your site\u2019s RSS feed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feeds can also be limited to excerpts only and users should visit your site to view the full post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This setting will not affect how content is displayed on your page;
